News Blantant NRL cheating tactics

[Rodzilla]

i actually think the nrl want the broncos to get the spoon

As for the selected players only in scrums the referees have enough issues getting the current rules right. Selecting ten from each side to be the only ones to pack in and the referee having to check both sides will blow the thirty seconds scrum clock out of the water...AND pardon me but aren't all players supposed to be in line with the referee anyway at the play the ball and were they not always in breach of the rule if they jumped the gun....


In other rules to be trialled, only forwards will be allowed to pack into scrums.
Clubs will have to nominate 10 forwards among their final 17-man squads and referees will ensure they pack down at scrum time.
After a six again has been awarded all defending players except those who have taken up a position as marker(s) must “retire 10 metres from the point at which the ball is played or to their own goal line”.

All defending players are required to be “in line” with the referee marking the 10 metres.
The referee will call “go” when the ball has been played backwards and then the defensive line is entitled to move forward. Players who jump off the 10 metres early will be considered to be in breach of the 10 metre rule. Touch judges are to assist the referee in monitoring and enforcing the 10 metre rule

I said to my workmates during the week if he hasn’t taken the conversion for goal and it is clear cut no try like the one in our south’s game why not just correct your mistake? So I can’t see a problem with that rule change.

Unfortunately once a decision like that has been made by the referee and try has been awarded on field it can't be changed.

The 6 again, with all except markers, back 10m will more greatly affect momentum and time in possession. The opportunity to rort that one is limitless and also gives refs more opportunities for questionable sin bin use.

 

[wendog33]

Why not just get rid of scrums all together.

They're rolled behind the 2ndrow to the lock now anyway.

 

[Wahesh]

I have no words. This is not the level of "2014 souths using worldwide banned performance enhancers but rhe NRL looking the other way" type of cheating. But it's damn close.

New rules trialed to do the best they can to avoid giving the broncos the wooden spoon! FUCK THE NRL! FUCK THIS BULLSHLAKHA!!

NRL RULE CHANGES

They are trying to prevent a repeat of what happened to us against Souths, how is this a bad thing? If it were to happen to us again, we'd be happy it happened.

 

[Alan79]

TV wants the game to look more "entertaining" to win viewers who are not fans of any club. Their sponsors want bigger audiences so they can sell their gambling apps to them.

An alternative way to look at this is that the NRL gambling sponsor gives a percentage of profits to the NRL and that by ensuring that the games can be officiated towards the ideal results for maximum profit the NRL can better empty the wallets of gamblers to fill their own. Most of the recent changes are seemingly in order to make blatant wrong calls less visible to fans. Because referees have been increasingly criticised as cheats.

Lol okay... so why not trial it on the only ACTUAL dead rubber game between warriors and manly.

Im not against the changing rules per say but more to the fact its being blatantly done with brocnos in a VERY OBVIOUS attempt to help them avoid the spoon. Cause God forbid they experience real life like the rest of the competition!!

 

[axeman23]

New rule just in: "" Teams from states/territories that rhyme with "Beanstand" are not allowed to win the wooden spoon. If a team from a state/territory IS in the Wooden Spoon position after the completion of the regular season, the spoon automatically passes to any team that rhymes with "Bantercury Dullbogs". That is all.""

 

[chisdog]

"referees who think a try has been scored will award it without consulting the bunker.
Up until the conversion attempt is taken, the bunker will be able to review the try and overturn the referee’s decision.

If the referee believes a try hasn’t been scored they stop the game and send the decision up as a “no try” as normal. "

What are the odds a Sutton gets the Broncos game?

Grant Atkins is the ref

 

[Bulldogsteve]

The new rule is that you can only send it up as no try.

So if the ref 60 / 40 that a try has been scored he can't sent it to be checked.

thats not correct, you can send it up to get checked, but if they say try the bunker can still over rule it

 

[Bulldogsteve]

Problem is, we see how long the bunker take to check some tries - Longer than it takes to have a kick at goal, thats for sure.
If I was a goal kicker and a bit dubious about the 'try' we just scored, I would be kicking that ball quicker than a knife fight in a phone booth.

if it is close just decline the shot for goal

 

[dogluvver]

The rule should be the bunker can review up till time of the kick off. That would give the bunker plenty of time to review the try & prevent the try scoring side of doing a rushed kick.

 

[GTOWN]

Is there any issue with bets on the wooden spoon? If broncos win, and you had backed them to win the spoon, is there an avenue to appeal, given the rules of the game were altered and had a significant affect on the outcome of the bet, after you had placed the bet in good faith that the competition would be fair and even for all teams, and all games played under the same rule book conditions

New rule is that they are trailing this weekend is the ref is only to send a try for review if the ref was to rule 'no try'.

He cannot send it to the bunker and say 'Try". In that case the he bunker then may review until the goal kick is taken if they chose to.

Why I am not a betting man.

Get too many wrong.

yeh true sorry, even if he says try the bunker can overrule before a goal kick is taken

 

[spscand]

Annnnd here we go... the exploitation starts! Atkins u fucking ****

 

[Heckler]

What you said just happened lol

I can see problems with the 6 again for offside.

Your team charges off the line and dominates the ball runner, the opposition get a six again cause your team is offside, but your team gets the initial momentum and dominance in that new set of six. So unless the opposition can shift that momentum in that new set, it's fairly useless. Whereas a penalty marches the opposition down field and they get the initial momentum from the tap.

Smart coaches will work this rule over till it's dead.

 

[Como Dog]

Watch the goal kickers rushing to grab the ball and take immediate conversions before try celebrations finish. Then defenders will kick the ball away immediately after grounding to stop the quick conversions and Sutton will choose to hammer us with those penalties.
